Candy Rates unbalanced?

Although I would like to believe getting the same amounts of each candy type is true, it has to more than just luck/karma/coincidence to get sweet candies most of the time.

Current Candy rate:

Sour -25%
Sweet - 50%
Hard- 25%

That's the approximate count I get EVERY time I meet the PK. Does the rate change day to day? Is there a flaw in the algorithm? Can I NOT GET SWEET CANDIES THIS TIME?!

It's random luck.

It's just chance

I had 9 hard after spending my tokens, didn't get any hard from Punkin, then came back with 17 hard after the next one.

It's random luck. One person

It's random luck. One person does not make an adequate sample size, OP.

They definitely are

They definitely are unbalanced in the short term; I have dozens less Sour than the others, but the actual rates (in the long term) are probably roughly balanced enough, but just not to the specific point where you'll see it.

Random

I get a ton of sweet, after the first day I had 26 sweet, 14 sour, and 9 hard
So it is random
And I wish that every day i could get over 50 tokens...

I got over 80 boxes in total

I got over 80 boxes in total plus all three masks and the rate was pretty fairly spread, hard candies are roughly one box (25 tokens) ahead of the other two type of candies for me so the rates really are random.

MOAR!

18 Sour, 17 Sweet, 9 Hard.

I don't care how many of each I get. I just want as many Hallow Prize Boxes as I can get my hands on.

@Fehz: Lies. The way it works is obviously this:

  1. You post what mask you want on forums
  2. Devs/GMs read this and judge what tokens you want
  3. They send snipes into clockworks to eat all the tokens you want
  4. Your token drops are personally unbalanced
  5. You are forced to spend 375000 cr in order to get your mask
  6. ???
  7. PR- *cough* CROWNSINK!
